A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1005

Robin shot Nathan a sidelong glance, then turned away, beckoning to Eleanor, "Come here."

Eleanor hesitated for a few seconds, then walked up to him.

Robin gently tapped the plaster on his right hand with his left, "It's been bandaged for too long, the skin around it is a bit itchy, scratch it for me."

Eleanor retorted, "Didn't you tell me to keep my distance?"

Robin replied, "That was just then, now I need your help, can you stay away?"

Eleanor couldn't help but think to herself that Robin wasn't as clever as he appeared, and she considered Bernard to have poor taste. She noticed the disdain in Robin's eyes but wasn't entirely sure what he was plotting.

Sigrid also observed the tension between them and wondered if Robin had some ulterior motive involving Eleanor. However, he quickly dismissed the idea, realizing that if Robin had any ill intentions, he wouldn't let Eleanor take care of him so tenderly; instead, he might be trying to embarrass Bernard.

As for Robin's sexual orientation, Sigrid wasn't certain, but he felt relieved that he could be there to prevent any gossip about Eleanor.

Meanwhile, Eleanor glanced at Robin and then rolled her eyes in response to his behavior. She found a spot on the sofa beside him and decided to sit down. "Mr. Spencer, give me your right hand," she calmly requested.

Feeling pleased by Bernard's wife obeying his command, Robin gladly extended his right hand to her. However, as Eleanor's fingers touched the sleeve over his plaster, an unexpected sensation washed over him. His body tensed up, and his heart started racing uncontrollably.

Surprised by his sudden reaction, Robin looked up at Eleanor, taking in her clear and flawless face with its smooth skin, beautifully arched eyebrows, and delicate, cute features. Each aspect of her appearance seemed to have a mesmerizing effect on him, making him feel both tense and breathless.

Especially when her fingers touched his skin, it was like an electric current hitting him, making his previously tense body suddenly relax.

He was shocked at his own reaction, "What the hell?!"

Eleanor was originally planning to scratch him hard, but seeing him suddenly jump up, she got scared thinking he had discovered something, so she quickly withdrew her fingers.
